[Linganth] Fwd: [LingGEOG] CFP: AAG 2019 Linguistic Geography sessions

Aloha mai kākou,

(Apologies for x-posting!)

See the CfP below for the Linguistic Geography sessions at the American
Association of Geographers Annual Meeting in Washington, D.C.; April 2019.

Linguistic Anthropologists whose work intersects with space or landscape
are especially welcome to join. One of the themes of the AAG meeting this
year is Human Rights, which I think fits quite well with the scholarly
pursuits of many members of the LingANTH listserv.

Hi all,


The time is almost upon us to finalize panels for the American Association
of Geographers' Annual Meeting, and the Linguistic Geography sessions
pioneered by Catherine Lee will be making their fourth appearance. Please
consider joining in! Here’s our abstract for the sessions:


"Language is often shaped by space, and our ideas of space are in turn
conveyed through language. The interaction between the two remains relevant
to scholars from a variety of disciplines including cultural geography,
linguistic anthropology, sociology, and political science. This
interdisciplinary session examines different ways in which landscape and
language are connected, methods for analyzing their relationship, and the
impact they have on our understanding of the world.


Topics include language and space, linguistic landscapes (language use in
public spaces), language and power, ethnophysiography, toponymy,
dialectology, linguistic cartography, and the representation of places in
discourse. Papers that engage with the conference theme of Geographies of
Human Rights are encouraged."


Please reach out to Greg Niedt at gjn23 at drexel.edu by *Wednesday, October
24th* if you are interested in presenting at the 2019 sessions. More
information about the conference can be found at
http://annualmeeting.aag.org/, and please feel free to disseminate the CFP
to anyone you know who might be interested.


Cheers,



Greg Niedt and Kirsten Helgeson, Co-Organizers
